Today's Story Highlights

Yahoo Ropes In Gmail
Yahoo last week announced that it had integrated Gmail with the online
version of Yahoo Mail, just two months after integrating Outlook.com,
Hotmail and AOL Mail in a major redesign. It also has integrated Gmail
support in Yahoo Mail for Android 5.1 and Yahoo Mail for iOS 4.0.4.
Yahoo Mail for Android 5.1 began rolling out to Google Play last week.

The Trouble With Hoverboards and Lithium-Ion Batteries
As I'm writing this, a few more hoverboards have caught fire, and they
now are banned on most domestic airlines, suggesting that shipping these
things fast could be a problem. Australia even has put out a specific
warning on hoverboards. The biggest problem is that a lithium ion fire
in a large battery pack like this could burn down your house, and that
would be an ugly end to holiday festivities.

Gadget Ogling: Unappetizing Apple Juice, a Fistful of Virtual Reality, and Considerate Drones
After years of seeing third-party companies release battery pack cases
for its iPhone line, Apple finally has entered the market itself. The
Smart Battery Case aims to protect your iPhone and provide it with extra
power when you need it. A full charge on the phone and the battery case
delivers up to 25 hours of talk time, and up to 18 hours of LTE Internet
use.
